As an EA Sports Producer I had the priviledge of working with many talented people and some truly wonderful teams. This honor spanned 17 years, 4 continents, 5 Studios, 15+ hardware platforms, and over 40 successful products released internationally. This included industry leaders NHL Hockey, PGA Tour Tiger Woods Golf, Need For Speed Racing, FIFA and UEFA Champions League. As a Producer at EA I held direct responsibility for design, development, quality and on-time delivery of interactive entertainment software. I’ve lead internal and external development teams of all sizes, local in N.A as well as Europe and Asia. I have two decades of hands on experience managing ground-breaking technology including the rise of the internet, web and mobile devices. I am proud to say the teams I’ve lead, besides being very successful with consumers and against competitors, have never failed to meet their budgets, quality objectives or release deadlines.
